Name three features of secondary immune responses that distinguish it from a primary immune response?
Primary Immune response: 1) Smaller Peak Response 2) Usually IgM>IgG 3) Lowere average Antibody Affinity Secondary Immune Response 1) Larger Peak Response 2) Relative increase in IgG and under certain situations in IgA or IgE ( Heavy Isotype switching) 3) Higher Average Antibody Affinity ( Affinity Maturation)

What distinguishes the secondary immune response from the primary immune response?
the secondary immune response is faster and stronger than the first. the primary response also takes a few days to react with the antigen whereas the secondary immune response reacts faster to an antigen.
What is an antiarrestin?

How do antigen-antibody complex protect the body?

What is antigene and antibody?
An antigen is a substance that can invoke an immune response. While an antibody is the immune system's response to an antigen. Antibodies, act by directly neutralizing the antigen and/or bind to the antigen and signaling marcophages to phagocytose the antigen.
Is an antibodie an antigen?
An antibody is a glycoprotein that is produced by plasma cells. It consists of heavy chains and light chains. An antigen is a molecule that interacts with an antibody (or T-Cell). When the antigen interaction induces an immune response it is known as an immunogen.
Does neutrophils produce antibodies?
no.. it does not... antibody works on specific immune response only...
What is antibody and what you is the function?
Antibody is a type of protein produced by the immune system, its function is to fight antigens (bacteri, virus)
Are antibodies nonspecific?
Antibodies are non specific! That is why antibody testing does not signify anything specific except that an immune response is on progress. Processed flour will give you an immune response and show elevated liver enzymes that are typical during times of infection
